The television stations in the Eastern Kingdom were different from those in other countries. They could not be privately operated. They were semi-official and semi-private organizations. Controlling shares were confidential, and a portion of the shares could be sold to the outside world. The higher-ups in the television station had to be established, but the higher-ups were recommended by the major shareholders and not directly appointed.
Of course, this was only in recent years. In the past, they did not sell their shares to the public and were completely official. However, if that was the case, the operation would be too rigid, the profit margin would be too poor, and the confidential burden would be too great. Therefore, they began to introduce some private capital, confidential supervision, and appointment of a director to coordinate. The rest would be operated according to the commercial operation of private capital.
The Oriental Group was the first large-scale media group to be reorganized. The other satellite channels followed closely behind. Now, the more famous satellite channels with higher viewership ratings all had such a business model.
After the capital operation, a situation would occur. The better the economic environment of the location, the more developed the satellite TV would be, and the stronger the financial strength would be. Therefore, they were no longer satisfied with buying dramas and programs. Instead, they would spend huge sums of money and resources to establish a specialized film and television production company.
Mango TV was Dongyang Huanyu Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd., while Oriental Group, which was also Tomato TV, was Jiangcheng Juku Culture Communication Co., Ltd. In terms of movies and television dramas, these two were the ones who had the most trouble. As for Jiang Province's satellite TV, which was Blueberry TV, they were now taking a different approach and focusing on variety shows. Movies and television dramas were their weakness.
It wasn't that media groups like them hadn't tried to nurture their own artists. They had even held many national talent shows, hoping to develop into a business model like Nanguo TV Station or TVP. Unfortunately, they hadn't succeeded.
This was because the number of cards they could provide was still too little. Moreover, an unorthodox path was still an unorthodox path. Compared to students from professional film and television schools like the Film Academy, the gap was too big. In addition, the treatment was scarily poor. Those with potential could not be retained. Therefore, there were often contract disputes.
Therefore, the current two giants 'business model was to have a group of their own artists as the backbone, and then invite some popular starlets and young actors to act as the main actors. They would combine both internal and external factors to nurture some acting talents and potential new stars, while using the already famous or slightly famous celebrities to attract attention and fans, increasing the attention and viewership ratings of the series.
This was also the reason why Sister Zhen, who had been groomed by Mango TV, could appear here. Otherwise, even if she no longer had much to do with Mango TV, they wouldn't have invited her here for an audition because both sides were their main competitors. It was a relatively relaxed period now, and artists still had a lot of freedom.
"Who is that kid? Why are there so many people around him?”Li Buyi asked Sister Zhen when he saw a handsome man who was about 180 cm tall surrounded by a group of people.
Sister Zhen looked at Li Buyi with disdain and said in a bad mood: "Brother, don't you watch dramas now? He was Yang Qing, one of the four young hunks of the Eastern Kingdom. The male lead of this drama had basically been decided internally. The audition was just a formality.”
Li Buyi said somewhat embarrassedly: "I really don't usually watch this kind of drama. Who are the four young hunks?"
"The four young hunks of the East are Li Yi, Yang Qing, Bai Han, and Wu Qiaofan. The reason why they were called the four young hunks was because they had good looks and many fangirls. They were very popular, but their acting skills were average, so they could not be called young hunks. They could only be called young hunks. As for the Four Great Xiaosheng, the currently recognized ones were still Chen Wuji, Huang Ming, Tong Wei, and Deng Yue. The four students on the small screen were Gu Feng, Lin Yunxin, Huo Jianhua, and Chen Ye. By the way, don't tell me you only know about the four great actresses and the four little actresses?"
"Hehe, why would a man like me care about a man? It was more like a flower star or something. You can go over first. Remember the key points I mentioned. It won't be a big problem. I'll wait for you outside. Is it okay to sign the contract?”
Sister Zhen smiled sweetly and said," My real manager, Sister Hong, is here. You imposter, wait for me outside."”
Professional things were done by professional people. The remaining Li Buyi couldn't play any role, so he just watched the beauties play with their phones outside.
From the looks of these people who came to the audition in the past, Sister Zhen could tell that her worries were unnecessary. This was a TV series that sold dogs and sheep. The computer and online game experts were not the selling points. The main points were the looks of men and women and the various ways to flirt with girls and men. It was a typical teen idol drama. Hopefully, it wouldn't be too brainless. If it was like the one in Dongcheng, wearing cheap clothes from street stalls and pretending to be tall, rich, and handsome, it would be a little awkward.
Just like the thunder drama Meteor Shower that Sister Zhen debuted in. The tall, rich, and handsome rich people in it were really embarrassing. They were not even as well-dressed as the kids in Jindian Primary School. Their clothes were at least a few thousand yuan, and the worst was a little less than ten thousand yuan.
A fruit phone, a fruit watch, and some video games were almost 10,000 yuan. They were really not on the same level. As for Yuying High School, it was even more exaggerated. Many of them were carrying LV and Chanel bags. Children these days really couldn't afford to raise them.
"Are you also an artiste who came for the audition this time?”At this time, a short-haired, oval-shaped face, a pretty girl asked Li Buyi. Because he felt that Li Buyi was very special. Generally, there were very few boys who kept their hair so long. Moreover, he had an otherworldly temperament. If he was acting in ancient costumes, he would definitely be famous. Because she often acted in ancient costumes.
Li Buyi's eyes lit up when he saw this beauty in front of him. This girl's short hair style was very interesting. There weren't many short-haired beauties that could make people's eyes light up. However, when they really appeared, they were indeed very unique. Sometimes, being unique was already half the battle.
"I'm not an artiste. I'm here with a friend for an audition. What about you? Are you here for the audition too?"
"What? You don't even know me. It seems that my popularity is really low. Sigh, it seems that I won't be able to audition this time.”The short-haired beauty said dejectedly. Although she was from 1988 and had debuted for four years, she had basically been a soy sauce in the major dramas. Many people only knew her face when they saw her, and they could not even call her name. She was actually not very confident about the second female lead this time.
